A different view of life

Saturday, January 7, 2017

I don’t know Zeeshan Bakhsh or FADLAD Personally. Neither I am interested in fashion blogging. You already know that I am a speaker, analyst, devoted for budding entrepreneurs and adviser to established ventures aiming at new vision. I have a very straightforward “WHY”. Then you must be wondering why Zeeshan worth’s to be talked about?

I came across his blog through a social media site and decided to write about him.

Zeeshan is also among budding entrepreneurs, has a strong personality which he represents in his blog so it would be unjust if I do not initiate an unsolicited review.

I’ve decided to become more friendly on sharing reviews.

Getting back to point where FADLAD is really good at? He is beyond selling clothes. If you grasp through his website. He is more a story from Mumbai. I find him courageous to talk of restaurant etiquette's and behave authentic to form a new tribe in the crowd. Therefore, it is indeed an inspiration for any sane mind. It was one example from a lot of his good work. Here is the list of Zeeshan’s (FADLAD) competitive advantage / expertise, he should consider to improve and become rock star in the industry.

#1. He needs not to go with the flow

There is nothing absolute in world and business. In my opinion he is doing an incredible work to stay competitive, go through this. Why would a fashion blogger share such a lovely post encompassing other’s good work, it simply builds rapport? It is not his sale lead; trust me it depicts passion towards expanded vision on men fashion. That is where he needs to establish his why in a more persuasive way. I’d love if he can share it purposefully that why he finds him fit in to this business.

Tip: It must also tell that how his drive to help people succeed syncs with mine.

#2. Collaboration and Conversation

A wise man once said, your network is your net-worth! That is what I perceive to be missing out in his blog. May be he is well-versed in offline modes. He needs to put more energy and enhance focus on this aspect. If a fashion blogger like Zeeshan (applies not only on FADLAD) personally talks, engage, collaborate he might get better traction in contrast to his exceptionally well Instagram account.

#3. Effectively utilize modelling skills

I am often invited to share insights on entrepreneurship, success and failure. Recently a participant in a talk raises his hands and gives me feedback me as a sarcastic. I still appreciated him for cracking the joke the best way he could. I would rather love it if Zeeshan engulfs himself in taboo subjects as dowery or sex afterwards (Just Examples – Choose your own). It is important to become a topic, flame a talk and go viral (play safe).

#4. Use the power of social media

We can never ignore power of a tweet, snap story, sales pitch through use of any of the social platforms. FADLAD can do more on Pinterest, blog or Medium. Maybe we can also find relevance to Google Ad words here. Are we missing out Facebook live or Periscope? Nowadays we should also work on casual attires because millennials love tees on workplace, we can talk on mantras. Furthermore, there're numerous ideas on this aspect.

#5. Indulgence in stories

I'd love a professional portray of FADLAD’s photographic ambitions and Zeeshan’s modeling. What is his daily routine, how are his eating habits, what are his explorations in family life, and how he hangouts (Is it too personal too ask? Does he really behave like a celebrity?). Hence, I would recommend a more responsive YouTube channel based on his stories, ambitions and actions to be visible for a larger audience with an increased subscribers base.

Can someone ask him to fix the fonts on the portal? They should be improved. Has he ever participated in grand shows out there in Mumbai, other cities or maybe foreign countries accordingly? Same way, I'd love to see all this possible adventures of this highly productive venture.

Thanks to an increased urbanization and elevated migrants
towards big cities on account of education, employment and exposure, housing
now has become dreadful matter for bachelors. Thanks to well conveyed
disparities for less fortunate / undeveloped cities of our homeland, the people
are bound to move in apparently moderate, newly cultured and well off
civilizations, say Islamabad; previously the same relatively less civilized tag
holders. In a conscious study it was found that 20-30% students in a newly
commenced course under public / private universities were migrants “youngsters
of equal caliber speaking identical language & bearing NADRA CNIC but from
less fortunate areas of the same country”. Needless to talk about merit as
almost 80% public sector universities in Islamabad lack boarding amenities
& most times there’s no housing for starters by potential employers
including public offices & multinationals.

Thanks to mistakenly justified discernment about culprit
pushing bachelors to the closed end street on account of fake safety
apprehension, where landlords identify every bachelor tenant as rapist while
signing rent deed, Oh luckily if they do. Regardless of his social status,
dignity and locale repute, some miscreant landlords at large charge 200%
additional rent burdened with multiplied securities on account of their own
safe side while renting a house floor, flat or a separate area. What to do,
robbery? Unregulated private hostels have evolved as well tailored industry
with highly expensive rentals for heavy profit margins. Let the role of
government be neutral in this social disease of mistrust, everyone having spare
covered area tries to manipulate bargaining and pretends to be super
“Raja-Gidh”.

Unfortunate thanks to dark side of eastern society where
veils are now treated as positivism and universities are considered as the
nurseries for cultural destruction and there’ve been experiences when
relatively more lucky, bright, quoted as moderate, residents aged 15-30 kids
have been murdered by the friends of same regime and different gender in strict
so called trepidation by nexus of influenced cultural disseminate. Offenses
aside there we see clear violation of religious norms, rituals and values
practiced then relatively rich in apparently less fortunate, undeveloped and
apparently uneducated but moderate cities. Assume empathetic and think about
same sort of crime with their ratio in areas like Gawadar, Skardu, Sibi, RY
Khan or Multan. Though there’s no provision of good universities in reasonable
number but it can be explored that social standing is quite handsome with
welcoming attitude even in absence of so-called civic sense.

It’s needful to prevent stereotyping and taking positive
initiatives for purge housing issues for educated bachelors on social level. It
might help us to eliminate social divide to build a relatively more resilient,
bright Pakistan!
